I just got SMACKED in the face with a reality check.
There are a bazillion things flooding my brain right now. One thought I am holding onto is that the group of women I get to work with are INCREDIBLE. Absolutely incredible.
Three years ago (actually, my Beachbody birthday is March 1st... coming up!), I was in a low low place. I was discouraged, tired, fighting for myself because I was slowly picking up habits that I knew would turn me into a mom-bot. I didn't want to COAST through life like a robot.
- Wake up at early-thirty.
- Rub the sadness from my eyes and eat my breakfast during my work commute.
- Get a call from the daycare that my son hit someone... again.
- Come home & get in argument with husband about "What's for dinner?"
- Then yell at my kiddo until he goes to sleep.
- Sleep with makeup on.
- Wake up and hit repeat.
WOW. I know that was a bit brash but that was truly the direction I was headed. Then I decided to TAKE A TURN. Create my own plot twist. Do something FOR ME. So I started working out and caring more about my nutrition.
I found out Beachbody had an online "referral program" where I could earn commission on recommending their products (which I love and trusted!). So I signed up!
I was able to start MENTORING women to climb out of their holes (one that I was far too familiar with!). I could cry. No one deserves to feel mediocre.
GUESS WHAT?? For the past 4 weeks, I've found myself climbing back into my hole. I've been having weird emotions and doubts. I have questioned my ability to make a difference. I've felt defeated... and instead of letting this God-given opportunity WAKE ME UP --- all I've wanted to do is sleep.
UNTIL this morning when I OPENED MY EYES and looked through these 22 coaches lives. I looked through their Facebook and saw how incredible they were. How inspiring & driven & talented they are... it made me speechless.
In my head, I said, "Oh girl, you are so good! You just keep doing what you do and you will reach all your goals!" I literally flipped through dozens of coaches and repeated this. Then a LIGHT BULB went off in my own head.
"LAURA, YOU JUST KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND YOU WILL REACH ALL YOUR GOALS!"
I am so thankful that I have a family to live my life with. I am so grateful that I have a roof over my head and a table together. I am even thankful that I have clothes to wear... that at the moment are literally tornado'd around my bedroom.
Ladies who are "BUSINESS STARTERS" this month --- you inspire me. You have helped me. You have given me such peace and excitement. You have no idea how much I believe in you. And you have permission to feel human like I have... but let's never stop moving our feet. You are making a difference.
Here is a video to explain my "AHA" moment --
If you are not yet a part of our Beachbody Coach family, what are you waiting for? We are a bunch of real women who are setting goals and encouraging each other each month to become better, stronger, wiser and as a result... we are becoming like family.
